But Sobel said police are still trying to identify Hussey's front-seat passenger, who reportedly used a knife at the edge of a long pole to try to break the windows of the Farmington victims' car.

Hussey has been charged with reckless conduct and criminal liability for conduct toward another. Both charges are being treated as Class B felony offenses, according to the Middleton Police Department, because a deadly weapon was used in the commission of the alleged incident.

According to police, they responded at approximately 8:30 p.m. Jan. 17 to an ongoing road rage incident in the area of Route 153 reported by a third party. Sobel said the caller reported one car chasing another through Milton and Middleton, with the operator trying to force it off the road and a passenger trying to break the window of the victims' car by using a knife attached to the end of a stick.

The two victims and two witnesses said the altercation began on Main Street in Farmington, where the victims say they were also threatened with a baseball bat and a chainsaw.

Multiple police units from Middleton, Milton, Farmington, New Durham and the New Hampshire State Police were dispatched to the area for what was called a “rolling road rage incident.”

The two victims were able to make their way to the Farmington police station last Thursday evening while Hussey reportedly left the area. A warrant was issued for Hussey's arrest, and he was taken into custody at his Dover residence the following day.

Sobel said this was not a random incident because the Farmington victims knew Hussey.

Hussey was arraigned last week in Rochester Circuit Court and was released on $5,000 personal recognizance bail. His bail order stipulates that he have no contact with the victims.

The Middleton Police Department is requesting that anyone who can help identify Hussey's passenger contact them at 603-473-8548.
